(62,325 posts)of Bush's war. Which is why he hated them of course. Truth is threatening to those who have things to hide. Terrorist reporters, Saddam lovers who watched them, it's all so familiar.
I'm glad to be immune to the old 'you're a putin/saddam/whatever/whoever' routine. I wish someone would pay for better propaganda. Dragging out the same old familiar attacks on the Left, it's always on the Left, have you noticed, is just sad.
Qatar is one of our closest allies now. They provide us with 'proxy' soldiers for our various 'proxy wars'.
We are all being duped, the left, the right. In a few years, Putin will be our bff and the loyal partisans will be scratching their heads, just as we were when we found out that Clinton was 'like a son to Babs Bush'.
So in the meantime, I just feel sad when I see people on our side now being manipulated the way the other side was.
In the meantime, I will stick to my principles, that way I don't have to twist myself into a pretzel to explain any flip flops to anyone.
RT at least has war correspondents. Does the Corporate media have any War Correspondents? I think we dispensed with real journalists in favor of the smiling, blond, blue-eyed 'stenographers' telling what we should eat and wear and what we don't need to bother our beautiful minds with. But I could be wrong, I haven't watched watched our discredited, corporate media since they were cheering for Bush and his wars.
